My personal favourites are Anne and Muriel, Les 400 Coupsand Mississippi Mermaid (though i last saw this many years ago). Shoot the Pianist, Jules et Jim, Stolen Kisses, The Wild Child, Day for Night, The Story of Adele H, The Man who Loved Women, The Green Room, Vivement Dimanche not far behind. Many fine films, but relatively few masterpieces, i think.The Green RoomVivement Dimanche

The 400 blows is one of the films I have seen in my life...maybe you could answer one question I have Bigpopa:

The last scene where Antoine Doinel runaway from the institution he is in to reach the sea and then while he reaches the sand and see the sea he suddenly looks at the camera with an empty expression on his face
